I'm no doctor but my face hurts. Drawing

in #art7 years ago

This is a 9x12" pen drawing on paper. I enjoyed doing this drawing because I didn't really take anything serious and wanted to sort of portray something little more goofy than what I usually do. Even the title itself is a little ridiculous. "I'm no doctor but my face hurts."

Most of the drawing on this was done without picking the pen up from the page. It's fun to just let yourself go and kind of free hand it all and see where the pen and paper takes you.

Also featured is my big fluffy cat Mr. Pink! And music by the musician Sexy Bicycle from Barcelona.

This is so incredible! The layers you've got here are mind blowing. I love the idea of an intuitive drawing. This looks like it took a lot of time and effort. Doodling is quite zen for me too. They don't come close to this level of detail and finesse but the process has always been meditative.

I had to smile about the great names - your drawing title, Mr. Pink, and Sexy Bicycle! :D Recently my cat laid down on my pastel drawing, afterwards she was half pink! :-)

Hahah That's one way to get a pink cat.

That title isn't something everyone comes up with! Do you draw most/all of these from imagination, or are references usually involved? I'm trying to do some more abstract/other art lately, but my momentum is a joke as I type this. I did pick up some of those Strathmore trading cards you mentioned--it's just that one is currently blank and staring back at me.

Haha, I love those little cards. 90% of the time it's from imagination. Sometimes I study buildings or ruins to get an idea for a piece. I meant that this one wasn't planned out at all No pencil or anything just freehand pen. Find that momentum!

Wow, amazing texture! Nice work there

I love your drawings. Such great use of line. How long does it take you to do a drawing like this?

Thanks. This piece was around the 7 hour range.

This is a little more goofy? XD
Still pretty creepy crawly like usual haha.

Haha I think for me it's a bit goofy!
